Her and Him
Like every bird
she was free to fly
in his sky
she spread her wings
in his night
he tripped
he fell
just a little hell
and they died together.

every minute
of every day
I can feel you
touch you
love you
be with you
she holds
your heart in tenderness
all your senses
sensitive
she understands
she believes
all our promises
everything
falls
from the clouds
like rain
she waters the earth.

Titled: happy
impossible
it seems impossible
to be fat and lazy
content and happy
her breast hung out of her heart blouse
tender and tempting
poor boy + poor girl
eating fat diamond dreams.

Titled: I should go fishing
or
just another ass poem
Can you smell
my hair burn
I will shave
my facial hair
Fast for a week
lookin' so bleak
But death is on my side
Suicide
We should cry
why not die
smoke and get high
I walk down so
many streets
I should just cheat
It's not fair
Why do we care
We never share
Where's Saint Nick
We're all dicks
I walk the block
hear a lot of talk
I should go fishing
Where's my rod?
the horizon is broad
I should specialize
do you hear
all my cries
I should just smell
my hair burn
and never learn.

Titled:
Come to me
I was left to linger
I was left to rome
I was left to search the unknown
Will it come to me?
Will it come to me?
My feet are off the ground
and I'm spinning around
Will it come to me?
Will it come to me?
I was left to linger
I was left to Rome
so much unspoken
so much left in my head
I was left to linger
I was left to Rome
come to me
come to me
come to me.

Titled: A question
Someone asked me, 'Why the obsession
with bones and skeletons?'
I replied, 'I feel like a little boy
that can not sleep on Christmas eve...
It is a present - it is
God's creation wrapped up in skin.'

Go - only if you want to
 |
Sit down - only if you must
Kiss the butterfly of beauty and sing with the dead in the
garden of evermore
The gate to the cemetery is rustic and the graves may be calling
your name
A little boy is walking home and he decides to take a short cut
But finds himself flying into the bottom of the big blue sea.

Titled: Anything
take me
rape me
kiss me
hold me
Do anything you want
Blow me
like a candle
light me
burn me
anything for pain
Just make me feel - real
deny
cry
crucify
I want to die
in pools of blood
and lick up your kiss of life
You are me
as
I am you
here we go again
playing this foolish game
anything for pain.

Titled: Princes Crown
Nested in a cocoon
in circles of self esteem
to be nested in your womb
in circles of your love
To live each day like the first
to walk on the dark side of the moon
to drown in the princes crown
to swim in the mermaids serpent tail
it's just another fairy tale.

Titled:
Tiger
an animal ran into
my studio, a tiger
a massive predator
its teeth, its jaws
bite
into my neck
and threw me around
the room like a
rag doll, it humbled
me, it stung me like
a bumble bee
and I found myself
lying on the studio floor
wounded.
(Written 2001)

Yoke happiness
fry it in the ground
Drive my car
when it comes around
into the ground
into the dirt
it doesn't matter if i hurt
vehicle of the work.

Titled: Big Apple
Jesus - walked naked in our garden
Eat the Big Apple
Here in New York Times
Creatures walk down these uneven sidewalks
Like Death,
spirits breath
in shadows.

Dance Around
Dance
Dance
Dance around my shower
Piss in yer eye
Piss in yer eye
walk away
I eye I
I want to dance
Dance around my shower
I am going around the bend
My shadows bark at the moon
I got dreams
in my head
I want to
jump off buildings
and fly
like Superman
fly like Superman
And I want to
dance around
dance around
dance around my shower.

two lovers
blowin' in the wind
she gave him
her heart
and he gave her
his life
to have and to hold
at the end of
the day they
sleep in the same dream
under the stars
dancing in the sun
two hearts beating as one
(wriiten Sept 2001)

Titled:
Who Says
Who says these kisses
can't sail us away
who says this love
can't open up the heavens
who says the clock
has to go to sleep
who says the moon
can't light the night
who says our love
will ever die
the sun does not stop
shinning when the night comes
love does not end
when the heart fails to beat
every winters day
every springs blossom
every summer sun
I fall in love with you
(written Sept 2001)
___________________________
You are my heaven
the flower petals in your eyes
the ocean in your arms
the jewels in your heart
everything precious
everything tender
every night with you
is a dream
you are my heaven
